Bikas Saha commented on YARN-308:
---------------------------------

You would want to look at YARN-103 and related jiras that are trying to make 
the protocol easy to use by implementing base libraries that hide the protocol 
complexity.
The AMRM protocol is not a delta protocol but an absolute one. So every ask 
request sends all outstanding requests to the RM.
                
> Improve documentation about what "asks" means in AMRMProtocol

> It's unclear to me from reading the javadoc exactly what "asks" means when
